The reservoir was formed by completion of R.L. Harris dam in 1983. The major rivers supplying water for the reservoir are the Tallapoosa and Little Tallapoosa rivers. These rivers merge just north of the Hwy 48 bridge about 8.5 river miles from R.L. Harris Dam. The reservoir is 24 miles long, has approximately 271 miles of shoreline, and covers 10,660 acres. Harris Reservoir is the newest of Alabama Power\u2019s 14 hydropower lakes in Alabama.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-large-font-size\"><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Boat Rental<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button is-style-outline is-style-outline--18\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"http:\/\/www.wedoweemarine.com\/Page.aspx\/pageId\/51051\/Boat-Rentals.aspx\">More Info<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-cover\"><span aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-cover__background has-background-dim\"><\/span><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" class=\"wp-block-cover__image-background wp-image-1355\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/thechapmanhouse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/wedowee-marine-slideshow-about-us-01-1024x683.webp\" data-object-fit=\"cover\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thechapmanhouse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/wedowee-marine-slideshow-about-us-01-1024x683.webp 1024w, https:\/\/thechapmanhouse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/wedowee-marine-slideshow-about-us-01-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/thechapmanhouse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/wedowee-marine-slideshow-about-us-01-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/thechapmanhouse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/wedowee-marine-slideshow-about-us-01.webp 1350w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><div class=\"wp-block-cover__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-cover-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-large-font-size\">Wedowee Marine rents pontoon boats for daily use.&nbsp; &nbsp;We supply&nbsp;life jackets for all adults.&nbsp; Our boats are equiped with very quiet and fuel efficient 4 stroke Yamaha motors.&nbsp; Call  800-780-2045 to book your reservation for a great day on Lake Wedowee.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Other links <\/strong><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/claycochamber.com\/\">Clay County Chamber of Commerce<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a title=\"Clay County Life Magazine \" href=\"http:\/\/issuu.com\/gwenbishop\/docs\/claycountylife\/13\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Clay County Life Magazine<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lakewedoweelife.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Lake Wedowee Magazine<\/a><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Alabama Hiking Trails<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;\">The many hiking trails of the Talladega national forest<br>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.fs.fed.us\/r8\/alabama\/%20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>http:\/\/www.fs.fed.us\/r8\/alabama\/<\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.secretfalls.com\/hiking\/states\/alabama\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/www.secretfalls.com\/hiking\/states\/alabama<\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.fs.fed.us\/r8\/alabama\/%20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong><br>\n<\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;\"> <strong><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Quintard mall<\/span><\/strong><br>\nOxford, Al.<br>\n<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shopquintardmall.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/www.shopquintardmall.com\/<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;\"> <strong><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Wine vineyards<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.whiteoakal.com\/\">http:\/\/www.whiteoakal.com\/<\/a><span style=\"font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;\"><br><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/lakewedoweewinery.com\/\">https:\/\/lakewedoweewinery.com\/<\/a><span style=\"font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;\"><br><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><small>View <a style=\"color: #0000ff; text-align: left;\" href=\"http:\/\/maps.google.com\/maps\/ms?msa=0&amp;msid=204044988170304316781.0004bba52de7914111197&amp;hl=en&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;t=m&amp;ll=33.573438,-85.693359&amp;spn=0.572096,1.234589&amp;z=10&amp;iwloc=0004bba59d5b58b06ca59&amp;source=embed\">Attractions and Local Businesses<\/a> in a larger map<\/small><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Local Businesses and Attractions Local attractions, grocery stores, restaurants and other places of interest in relation to The Chapman House.
